Have you met the Crafish King?

Today we are discussing Crawfest in Tahlequah, Oklahoma.

Get ready for a spring celebration centered on New Orleans eats at the annual Crawfish Festival in Tahlequah. Reserve your crawfish meal in advance, and partake in 6,000 pounds of crawfish prepared by the Linney Breaux's Cajun Eatery and Kroner & Baer Pub team. While you eat, be sure to indulge in New Orleans-inspired cocktails, or sip on Louisiana-style beer. After polishing off your final crawfish, play a round of yard games and tune into live music performances at this fun family event.

Tahlequah, Oklahoma, the capital of the Cherokee Nation, has been named one of the Top 100 Best Small Towns in America. Wander through the Tahlequah Original Historic District, an area where the street signs are written in English and Cherokee. Tour the Cherokee National History Museum and experience unforgettable cultural destinations, museums, interactive exhibits, cultural activities, and shopping. Float down what many consider the state's best canoe waterway, the Illinois River, or make a big splash at Lake Tenkiller. Unwind with fun and entertainment at the Cherokee Casino Tahlequah. Come time to chow down, enjoy sweet crepes and coffee at Drip, dive into Sam & Ella's Chicken Palace pizza, or take in scenic views from the Branch's outdoor patio.

Also discussed Yukon Amphitheater, Tour Tahlequah, Tahlequah Main Street Association, Linney Breaux's Cajun Eatery, Kroner & Baer, Yukon Progress, Yukon, OK, and Venu Holding Corporation.
